August 12, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

The first image has debuted from Aaron Sorkin’s directorial debut Molly’s Game. The drama is based on the memoir Molly’s Game: From Hollywood’s Elite to Wall Street’s Billionaire Boys Club, My High-Stakes Adventure in the World of Underground Poker by Molly Bloom and sees Jessica Chastain leading the cast as Bloom alongside Idris Elba, Kevin Costner, Michael Cera, Brian d’Arcy James, and Chris O’Dowd; take a look below…

“Molly Bloom a beautiful, young, Olympic-class skier who ran the world’s most exclusive high-stakes poker game for a decade before being arrested in the middle of the night by 17 FBI agents wielding automatic weapons. Her players included Hollywood royalty, sports stars, business titans and finally, unbeknownst to her, the Russian mob. Her only ally was her criminal defense lawyer Charlie Jaffey, who learned that there was much more to Molly than the tabloids led us to believe.”

Molly’s Game is set for release on November 22nd in the States and on December 26th in the UK.
